That's Why I Sing This Way - Hit Crew Masters[00:00:00]
My Momma used to tell me [00:00:10]
"Son you better get your work done[00:00:12]
Your Daddy's coming home at five[00:00:14]
And if you ain't all through with the chores you gotta do[00:00:17]
Boy I'm gonna tan you alive"[00:00:21]
I was glued to the radio listening to my hero[00:00:25]
Singing them sad old songs[00:00:29]
Singing them sadder than a one car funeral[00:00:33]
Nobody sings like Jones[00:00:36]
I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room[00:00:42]
And I'd play it like an old guitar[00:00:45]
Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George[00:00:49]
Dreaming of becoming a star[00:00:52]
Well things I never did when I was just a kid[00:00:55]
Made me what I am today[00:00:59]
You see Momma used to whoop me with[00:01:02]
A George Jones album[00:01:04]
That's why I sing this way[00:01:06]
So I ended up in Nashville working at a saw mill[00:01:21]
Just to be close to the stars[00:01:25]
I got a little broke but I couldn't ask my folks[00:01:28]
So I had to hock my old guitar[00:01:31]
I still hang around tootsie's orchid lounge thinking[00:01:34]
He'll walk through that door[00:01:38]
But a voice in my mind says "You wasting your time[00:01:41]
'Cause George don't drink no more"[00:01:45]
I'd take that old kitchen broom up to my room[00:01:50]
And I'd play it like an old guitar[00:01:54]
Or sit out on the porch trying to sing like George[00:01:58]
Dreaming of becoming a star[00:02:01]
Well things I never did when I was just a kid[00:02:04]
Made me what I am today[00:02:08]
You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:02:11]
That's why I sing this way[00:02:15]
You see Momma used to whoop me with a George Jones album[00:02:20]
That's why I sing this way[00:02:25]
